Terminal device, method for controlling terminal device, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing program

Abstract

A terminal that can communicate with a multifunctional machine includes a touch panel and a terminal control unit that, by execution of a control application, causes the touch panel to display icons including a multifunctional machine icon such that the icons are arranged in a line and, when an icon selected by a selection operation is the multifunctional machine icon, calls a control function of a multifunctional machine application which corresponds to the multifunctional machine icon, and the terminal control unit causes the touch panel to display the icons such that a part of one icon of the icons is superimposed on the other icon adjacent to the one icon.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A terminal device configured to communicate with a printing device, the terminal device comprising:
 a display unit; and 
 a control unit configured to, by execution of a first application, cause the display unit to display a plurality of icons including a first icon indicating a function of a second application which causes the printing device to execute processing such that the icons are arranged in a line and, when an icon selected by a selection operation from the icons is the first icon, call the function of the second application which corresponds to the first icon, wherein 
 the control unit causes the display unit to display the plurality of icons such that a part of one icon of the icons is superimposed on the other icon adjacent to the one icon. 
 
     
     
       2. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the control unit causes the display unit to display the plurality of icons in a mode in which each of the plurality of icons is obliquely inclined with respect to an arrangement direction of the icons. 
 
     
     
       3. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the first application has the function, and 
 the plurality of icons include a second icon indicating the function of the first application. 
 
     
     
       4. The terminal device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the control unit causes the display unit to display the plurality of icons corresponding to a type of the printing device that communicates with the terminal device. 
 
     
     
       5. A method for controlling a terminal device that includes a display device and that is configured to communicate with a printing device, the method comprising:
 by execution of a first application, 
 causing the display unit to display a plurality of icons including a first icon indicating a function of a second application which causes the printing device to execute processing such that the icons are arranged in a line and a part of one icon of the icons is superimposed on the other icon adjacent to the one icon; and 
 calling, when an icon selected by a selection operation from the icons is the first icon, the function of the second application which corresponds to the first icon. 
 
     
     
       6. A non-transitory computer-recordable storage medium storing a program that is executed by a control unit of a terminal device that includes a display unit and that is configured to communicate with a printing device, the program comprising:
 causing the control unit to
 cause the display unit to display a plurality of icons including a first icon indicating a function of an application which causes the printing device to execute processing such that the icons are arranged in a line and a part of one icon of the icons is superimposed on the other icon adjacent to the one icon, and 
 call, when an icon selected by a selection operation from the icons is the first icon, the function of the application which corresponds to the first icon.
